shades of orange (iI)

my husband brought me to the kate spade store today to get me my belated Mothers' Day present, and you will not believe this - i couldn't find ANYTHING i liked! NOTHING! i even walked round the store FIVE times just to be sure! i'm actually quite bummed. the product range was disappointing. there were a lot of the black bags...and the old barrow street annabel range as well as the older seersucker patent ones. the rest of the (very limited) newer range i didn't fancy at all!

they didn't have the mott street fisher in tangerine, nor do they have the splodge dot seraphine. well, they did have the victoria falls madeline, but the price tag was a bit much here. not justifiable for a teeny Mothers' Day present! that one calls for an anniversary or birthday or something! lol!

so i walked out of there empty handed...and very, very bummed. BUT. i'm not one to not have a back-up plan, so i managed to get something else instead to make up for the failed shopping trip. IT WILL BE REVEALED SOON!

meanwhile, here's what i wore today!



as i'm still waiting for all my orange dresses and tops to arrive from asos, the only dash of orange i can afford till then is from my tangerine five points camille! the dress is from asos, and heels from URS Inc.

i hope to have more "live colorfully" posts once i stock up on my orange gear!
